Netflix has secured a new reality competition series based on the classic board game Monopoly. The show aims to transform the game into a large-scale social-experiment contest, combining strategy, alliances, and cutthroat competition as contestants compete for fortune. The series will test friendships as players acquire wealth and aim to own it all, with Netflix winning the rights following a competitive bidding process. This move aligns with Netflix's strategy of utilizing pre-existing IP for unscripted content, following the success of shows like Squid Game: The Challenge and the upcoming The Golden Ticket, inspired by Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
